‘The Rapture – 6th
Seal’
First Seal (1993) – President
Clinton’s PLO-Israel Peace Treaty. (Mat 24:4-5)
Rev 6:1-2 Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals; and I heard one of
the four living creatures saying with a voice like thunder, “Come and see.” And
I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown
was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer.
Second Seal (1994) – Rwandan
Genocide
This was not
mentioned in Mat 24 as it does not affect Jerusalem nor Israel.
Rev 6:3-4 When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, “Come and see.” Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that [people] should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword.
Third Seal (1997) – Asian Financial
Crisis
This also was not
mentioned in Mat 24 as it does not affect Jerusalem nor Israel.
Rev 6:5-6 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.”
Fourth Seal ( ? ) – World War 3
may begin in 2026/7 with a quarter of all mankind killed (Mat 24:6-8)
Rev 6:7-8 When
He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature
saying, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of
him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And power was
given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with
death, and by the beasts of the earth.
Fifth Seal ( ? ) – Wrath of
Satan or Period of Sorrows/Tribulation for 42 months (Mat 24:9-28)
Rev 6:9-11 When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls
of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which
they held. And they cried with a loud voice, saying, “How long, O Lord,
holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the
earth?” Then a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them
that they should rest a little while longer, until both [the number of]
their fellow servants and their brethren, who would be killed as they were, was
completed.
Sixth Seal – Heavenly Blackout
and Rapture (Mat 24:29-31)
Rev 6:12-14 I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a
great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the
moon became like blood. And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig
tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. Then the sky
receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was
moved out of its place.
After the great earthquake, everyone will rush
out to the open. God will then isolate the earth from the solar system and the
rest of the universe. When the moon can no longer receive light from the sun,
everyone will see the moon turning blood red and eventually to black. When the
whole heaven is darkened, trumpets will sound to herald in our Lord Jesus. Our
Lord with the angels coming from heaven will appear as stars dropping down to
earth. At the last trump, His elect will rise to meet our Lord in the cloud and
they will be with the Lord forever.
Seventh Seal – Wrath of God (After
Rapture)
Rev 8:1-2 When He opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for
about half an hour. And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and to
them were given seven trumpets.
Rev 6:3-4 When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, “Come and see.” Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that [people] should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword.
Rev 6:5-6 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.”
